You can't know how good the vibe is unless you hear it. Im all about the music. Constructive criticism is welcomed. Im always down for making the sound better.

Started out playing rhythm guitar in New York for the reggae group Lion Force in the early 80s. Toured the US extensively for 7 years doing gigs in various cities and colleges.The band lasted until the beginning of the 90s. After the break up I turned to production which I continue to do now on a daily basis.

Story behind the song

A love story told in classic fashion...a love that is sacred

Lyrics

Intro]
[Verse 1]
no fireworks, just a steady flame 
no guessing games, no hidden names 
you meet my truth without a shield 
and that's a power i can feel 

[Chorus]
you are the calm inside my weather 
the steady pulse that holds me together 
not just a feeling that's passing through
but something sacred, tried and true 
you are the calm inside my weather 
the steady pulse that holds me together 
not just a feeling that's passing through
but something sacred, tried and true 

[Verse 2]
i don't need perfect, i need real
a love that listens, not just feels 
one that stands when pride gets loud 
and pulls us back before we're proud 

[Chorus]
you are the calm inside my weather 
the steady pulse that holds me together 
not just a feeling that's passing through 
but something sacred, tried and true 
you are the calm inside my weather 
the steady pulse that holds me together 
not just a feeling that's passing through 
but something sacred, tried and true 

[Verse 3]
I'm not impressed by loud displays 
or any temporary kind of praise 
you speak in actions, calm and clear 
and somehow the silence feels sincere 

[Chorus]
you are the calm inside my weather 
the steady pulse that holds me together 
not just a feeling that's passing through 
but something sacred, tried and true 
you are the calm inside my weather 
the steady pulse that holds me together 
not just a feeling that's passing through 
but something sacred, tried and true 

[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
if storms come rolling, let them roll 
we've got something they can't control 
no fear of falling, no retreat 
our foundation's just too much concrete 

[Chorus]
you are the calm inside my weather 
the steady pulse that holds me together 
not just a feeling that's passing through
but something sacred, tried and true
you are the calm inside my weather 
the steady pulse that holds me together 
not just a feeling that's passing through 
but something sacred, tried and true
